How to sync changes in user-created distributions lists when used by multiple Outlook users

Hi all,
Thanks for looking at my post. We are using Outlook exchange and Outlook 2010.
I have created a distribution list that is comprised of 20 members (students) with email addresses outside our organisation. I have sent this list to others in my workteam (Lecturers) and they have added the list to their own contacts group - we
share this list as we all email the same students for different reasons.
My issue arises when a student needs to be deleted from the distribution list and I am the first person to find out about it. Ideally, I would like to take the student off and have this distribution list automatically update for the other lecturers instead
of having to re-send the list to them after it has been edited. As it stands at the moment, each lecturer has to go into the distribution list I originally sent to them to delete the student.
There has to be an easier way to sync the changes that each lecturer makes to this list.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Sharyn

You can place the group in a shared Contacts folder so everyone will see the same group.
Depending on your Exchange infrastructure and working habits, this could be a folder in your mailbox, a Public Folder, Shared Mailbox or even a SharePoint List.

  • How do I change the font and graphic size when using Firefox

    I have recently switched from Windows to Mac. When resizing the window in Mac the font and graphic size do not follow -- they stay the same size and only more "white space" is created by increasing the window size. How do I get the graphics and fonts to adapt to the new window size or at least make the whole image bigger. I am using Firefox 3.6.12 and Mac OS10.6.5. Thanks for the help.

  • How do I change the label of the search when using ADF Query?

    According to Fusion UI standards, the search label should say Advanced Search or Search depending on whether or not the search is advanced or basic. Can anyone point me to some code that accomplishes this or describe how this should be done.? Thanks, -Klaus

    Hi Lucas,
    You can use the 'set(int, String, Image)' method on ChoiceGroup or on List depending on where your Choice elements are.
    Check the Java doc of ChoiceGroup or List for this 'set' method. In short, the 'int' refers to the index within the entire list, the 'String' object refers to the new caption of the choice element and the 'Image' object refers to the icon that has to be set for the choice element (can be 'null').
    Good luck!

    I added apps by syncing with a Mac.  It was under my husband's ACCT. When I tried to update apps on my iPad, it was his account.  How do I change this?  It only happens when I try to update apps

    Apps will always be tied to the account from which they were purchased.
    If they were purchased from your husbands account, then they will have to update using that account.

  • How do I change a form created by a departed employee?

    How do I change a form created by a departed employee?

    Some of those things involves using the various form field tools that are available in Acrobat 7 Pro (but not Standard). More information on working with forms is in the help doc.
    Moving text that's part of the regular page contents can be difficult or impossible. Deleting things is easier, but still may be difficult to get everything just as you want. The ideal way to make such changes is to change the source document and generate a new PDF, and then in Acrobat replace the old pages with the new (Document > Replace Pages). Any fields and other annotations, bookmarks, code, etc. will be retained.

Some of the keyloggers include remote monitoring capability, it means that we can send the remote file across the network to someone else and then we can monitor the key strokes of that remote pc. Some of the famous keyloggers include win-spy, real-spy, family keylogger and stealth spy.

  • Report email multiple users or distribution list

    I have created an output device for PDF format for report painter output.  When I print, there is space for a single mail address.  I have created distribution lists in the workplace, tcode SBWP.  I need to know how to send the pdf of the report painter output to the distribution list or multiple users.

    this sounds to me like the client is not handling errors properly
    and instead of resubmitting to only those that failed, it is resubmitting all
    I would say to look at the mail.log_current. make sure logging is on the defaults channel
    set LOG_CONNECTION=3
    and LOG_MESSAGE_ID=1
    in option.dat
    recompile configuration
    imsimta cnbuild
    reload configuration
    imsimta reload
    The original problem was when a temporary error occurred in sending one of the addresses, and we didn't handle that properly. Happened sometimes when Brightmail was involved.
    Since these are not Messaging lists, but Outlook lists, it's entirely possible that it's Outlook that's not handling the errors correctly.

  • Creating Distribution Lists for Email

    I have just migrated from BB. I was able to create distribution lists on the BB and have several in my Outlook. When I sync'd my new iPhone these lists did not get on my iPhone. Is there a way to either create distribution lists or have I missed something?
    Thank you in advance.

    No, you haven't missed anything. There is a 3rd party app called ContactTap that will let you e-mail an entire Contact Group, it was free last week.
    Alternatively, you can create groups and then store them as a single contact if you follow the instructions here:

  • HT4889 I have accidentally created another account when using Migration Assistant to a new MBA. How do I now 'migrate' all the files from both accounts into one to save myself having two accounts, both of which are me? Help?

    I have accidentally created another account when using Migration Assistant to a new MBA. I have read that I probably should not have skipped migration in the initial set up and the problem would have been avoided but, alas, here I am. Does anyone know how I can 'migrate' all the files from one of the accounts that has been created to the other, so then I can delete it and have a single user on the computer seeing as I am the only person using it? I have read starting again, if this is the way to go, where is the best place to start 'starting again'?

    Yes definitely should see it but its not coming up (I don't think) when I log out of 2nd user and into the main account. Opening finder in the 2nd account, I can obviously find the public folder because thats where I dropped all the files, but when in the main account, it can't be found. The only public folder that comes up is the folder for that account (main account) and it does not display files I'm looking for. Frustrating....
    EDIT: Have found it through a round-about way but all music and photo and movie etc files have a red stop sign disallowing them from being transferred. Can you guess what the next question will be?

  • How do I change the default software that opens when I click on a document?

    I'm not sure if this is the right neighborhood to post this question, but here goes. How do I change the default software that opens when I click on a document icon. I've been without MSWord for a long while, so all my word processing docs have been written in TextEdit, the stock mini-word processor that comes with OSX. Now I have MSWord and I no longer need TextEdit. Even more importantly, I'd like Word to automatically open when I click on a doc created in TextEdit. Adding ".doc" at the end doesn't do it. It's still refers to TextEdit to open the document.
    Any advice?
    Thanks,
    John

    Select a document of that type in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, change the application under Open With, click on Change All, and confirm your action.

  • Creating distribution lists in SAP CRM 5.0 business workplace

    Hi Experts,
    We have CRM 5.0 and I have tried to create distribution lists for
    mailsending.
    After defining a name and a folder (that is then created) for the
    list the recipient list insertion is a following task.
    I can search for partners of different type by F4 help but no
    matter the type of the partner searched - the type that is
    automatically entered to the lists recipents table is "shared
    distribution list". even though the desired type is among others
    in a list other values cannot be selected.
    Please help, is this a setting that can be undone or what might
    be a problem in the procedure that i use in creating a list?
    has anyone else had similar problems?
    Thank You so much,

    i have received an answer from SAP:
    "The reason for the error is a wrong entry in table TBCS_RECIP. To removethis entry, please use the report which is entered in the description
    of note 735795 or delete the wrong entry direct on table TBCS_RECIP.
    After the run of the report or the deletion on table TBCS_RECIP you willnot find further the selection option 'Business Partner' on the F4 help."
    The entry was removed and for Lists business partners cannot be selected at all - as a standard. really sad endeed.

    Thanks Lawrence. I've spent over 3 hours on the phone/chatting to online support and none of it seemed to help as it all revolved around resetting emails etc but can't do any of it without my access to my old email. Now my phone won't take cloud because they advised to set up new apple ID and use that, but can't sign out of old one completely. Also doesn't help because my phone and laptop are set up on the old one. Thanks for the help.
